Lara is a ex coursing Greyhound who was retired, well say retired, her career did not take off at all, hence why she has come into Scottish Greyhound Sanctuary. Born and bred in Southern Ireland in April 2017, Lara is looking for a family to love her. A shy white and brindle girl who has stunning markings and such deep amber eyes. After just a short time mixing with other sighthounds, her gorgeous personality has started to shine through. Not a in your face girl, quite calm and quiet really, taking to lying on her duvet watching the world go by. Not into playing at the moment but it is still early days. Lara loves her food and given the chance will try whatever you have spare. To see her take a treat from your hand was just so rewarding as when she came, she use to wait till you dropped the treat on the floor before shyly moving to take it. Lara picked up house training so quickly, think her new friends helped her a lot. Lara would like a quiet home with maybe a companion or two.

Mac update 😁
Chunky monkey Mac! With some good food, a bath and lots of tlc, Macs coat has finally started to shine and his amber tiger stripes are gleaming in the sun. Macs love, apart from having a quick run around, is food hence the chunky monkey sentence at the start. Treats he will take gracefully from your hand and he waits patiently when breakfast and lunch is given out. His tail never stops wagging when people are around and will stand for hours when you give him a good brush and rub down. A little strong on the lead but he is getting so much better. Ever so clean in his kennel and even his bed always looks so neat and tidy in the morning. Ladies are another love for Mac so maybe a family with an existing girlie would suit him.

What better way to start the New Year than to look back at all the hounds that found their forever homes in 2018. It was a busy year with lots of ups but sadly some downs too. Let's hope 2019 see even more hounds find their way home! Thanks to Suzanne Simpson and Fiona Tweed for the music suggestions.

I can't believe it's been almost a year since our last success stories video...
As always at this time of year we're putting a video together to celebrate all the dogs rehomed by SGS and we need some music to accompany the video. Please post your suggestions below

This will be one of the last homings of 2018 and it's a very special one ❤️
Our Robin originally came to SGS in 2015 and after a few months in kennels and foster care he bagged himself a great forever home. Unfortunately, in February this year, he had to come back into our care under very sad circumstances 😪. After that he bounced around a little bit, through no fault of his own, and sadly it all began to take its toll. The lovable, playful Robin was getting very stressed and this eventually led him into difficulty with some of the other dogs he was staying with, which was uncharacteristic.
Earlier this month a family who had just lost their dog and were sorely missing a canine companion happened to apply to SGS. The minute Robin was suggested to them they made plans to visit him and when they did it was love at first sight 😍. They took him straight home (they'd already got his bed ready 😂) and the rest, as they say, is history! Robin had a welcoming committee of the grandchildren and on that first night, as he lay on the floor being petted by his new little human, he knew he was finally home. He has well and truly worked his way into the family's heart and is loving every minute.
There are so many people to thank for helping Robin find his way home; Chantel, Ellen, Roseann, Doreen, Joe, Lianne, Fiona, Fin (for encouraging the Smith family to apply to SGS), and of course Shona who stepped in at the last minute and gave Robin space to be himself again. Robin will always have a special place in the SGS heart and we are all delighted he has found such a wonderful home. 😊
